title: Advances in insulin like growth factor binding protein 1 in the prognosis of acute myocardial infarction.
abstract: Insulin-like growth factor (IGF) is closely associated with cardiovascular diseases. Low IGF-I level and high insulin-like growth factor binding protein-1 (IGFBP-1) level in serum can be used as a marker in predicting the long term morbidity and mortality of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The article reviews the recent advances in IGFBP-1 in the prognosis of AMI.
